00:00:31.440 to talk about the real enemy that we face world war three is upon us most people don't know it

00:00:45.580 All that and more on today's podcast.
00:00:49.860 As America turns 250 this year,
00:00:52.920 there's a lot of talk about the founding fathers
00:00:54.960 and declarations and big moments in history,
00:00:57.020 and that's all good,
00:00:57.820 but there's another group of people
00:00:58.940 who built this country too.
00:01:00.540 People who never signed a document.

00:01:50.700 Hello, America.
00:01:51.940 You know we've been fighting every single day.
00:01:53.760 We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.
00:02:00.060 We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it.
00:02:04.900 But to keep this fight going, we need you.
00:02:07.180 right now. Would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast? Give us five stars
00:02:12.160 and lead a comment because every single review helps us break through big tech's algorithm to
00:02:17.520 reach more Americans who need to hear the truth. This isn't a podcast. This is a movement and
00:02:23.100 you're part of it, a big part of it. So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people
00:02:26.920 to wake up, help us push this podcast to the top. Rate, review, share. Together, we'll make a
00:02:32.800 difference. And thanks for standing with us. Now let's get to work.
00:02:37.180 you're listening to the best of the blend back program welcome to the program i am
00:02:51.740 i find myself in a weird position uh i have done radio for 40 this is my 49th year next year will
00:03:01.800 be my 50th year of broadcast and you know i did it for you know when i was you know teenage years
00:03:10.360 i did it for the chicks which never really showed up uh that didn't happen uh i did it for the fame
00:03:17.000 and the funny and the fortune and whatever that showed up temporarily um and just was so meaningless
00:03:25.940 and so empty i found my purpose in drink um and then i decided to do a radio show talk radio and
00:03:36.620 i was going to parody talk radio and 9-11 happened and everything on this show changed i mean the
00:03:47.440 show used to be very very funny and uh in some ways i wish it it it still was as funny as it
00:03:54.360 used to be um but the world just changed and it just got so so darn serious and so i started
00:04:02.960 doing what i thought was right and that was telling you what's right what's wrong
00:04:08.400 and i became honestly i in some ways i became the guy that i wanted to parody you know the
00:04:16.180 talk radio host was like i know everything because i'm the smartest guy alive and everybody
00:04:21.820 on talk radio does that it's hard not to fall into that um because this job requires you to
00:04:28.260 have enough of an ego to say this is the way it is and actually believe it and back it up
00:04:33.520 but also uh somehow or another keep that humility that no i don't really know what i'm talking about
00:04:40.820 i'm guessing you know like everybody else i might have a better guess than everybody else but i don't
00:04:45.360 know anything um and so i find myself today looking at a landscape and i'm going to talk
00:04:53.760 about this next hour looking at a landscape where our podcasters are all taking each other on
00:04:58.180 and i don't understand it and i do understand that some people are very right in my opinion
00:05:04.120 some people are very wrong in my opinion but uh i just wish people would stop
00:05:09.280 tearing each other apart because that's not helpful at all at all and it's not going to
00:05:15.740 change anybody's mind i know because i've tried it before and it doesn't work it only just makes
00:05:22.860 us into a smaller and smaller community we have to talk about principles and uh and what we are
00:05:31.320 for instead of who we're against or who's our enemy today and i'm going to get into something
00:05:38.580 that I heard this weekend, next hour,
00:05:41.080 that is really important,
00:05:42.300 not for the podcasters or for the broadcasters,
00:05:46.240 but for you, because we all have a responsibility.
00:05:50.000 You know, for the first time in human history,
00:05:52.160 people have always had audiences, okay?
00:05:54.720 You've been in Shakespeare at the Globe Theater,
00:05:57.240 and, you know, Shakespeare had an audience.
00:05:59.040 He had to come to the theater, but he had an audience.
00:06:01.640 But for the first time in human history,
00:06:05.700 audiences have an audience.
00:06:08.580 In your pocket, whether it is five followers or five million followers, you have an audience.
00:06:17.040 And so they put you in a place where you have real responsibility, especially at times like today.
00:06:24.240 You don't just repost things without thinking.
00:06:28.400 And I know it's really tempting.
00:06:30.680 And you can say, well, I don't know what's true.
00:06:32.920 Well, if you don't know it's true, then you shouldn't post it.
00:06:36.220 or you should post it with can anyone verify this i mean at the very least can anyone verify this
00:06:44.500 um and if they can't if you know i heard that no i have a source that told me then you shouldn't be
00:06:51.480 posting it okay you it's an opinion and you know when the war broke out with iran i was watching
00:07:01.600 the news all weekend long and I'm trying to get an update on things and I kept hearing these people
00:07:06.780 from both sides of the argument yelling at each other and each saying that they were right
00:07:12.460 and you know this war is going to turn into a massive massacre for everybody you know in the
00:07:18.660 Middle East it's going to massacre of everybody in the United States and I thought neither of you
00:07:22.660 know you don't know you don't know this where where are the facts can you just give me facts
00:07:28.520 please. Those aren't popular. Opinions are popular, and opinions without principles.
00:07:37.000 You know, most people never choose evil. They never choose evil, not knowingly, most. I mean,
00:07:44.060 some do, but most don't. People get lost, and they find themselves surrounded by evil
00:07:50.300 because the real choice in life is between right and almost right.
00:08:01.020 Almost right, you can pick, and that almost right could be picked even,
00:08:06.620 you know, consciously, you can go like, yeah, but that one's a little easier,
00:08:10.140 so I'm going to pick that one, okay?
00:08:13.280 And so you might do it for your own comfort, for your own ease.
00:08:16.740 You don't want to be a hardliner or whatever it is,
00:08:19.440 but you'll choose almost right. And if you keep choosing almost right, before you know it,
00:08:26.160 you're standing in a place that you're surrounded by evil. And you're like, how did I get here?
00:08:32.420 Well, because you kept choosing almost right instead of right. Wrong has an odor to it.
00:08:38.280 Wrong leaves fingerprints. Wrong will set off an alarm bell in your soul. Almost right just
00:08:46.540 slips in wearing the clothes of justice or patriotism or compassion security faith
00:08:53.300 or common sense almost right it says relax we're on the same side
00:08:59.160 but 10 almost right decisions later and you're standing with people who do not share your
00:09:05.880 principles only your grievance and so you're left standing there without a compass and you're like
00:09:13.140 I don't know. I don't even know how to do the truth. I don't know how to, how do I even find
00:09:16.680 the truth? How do I know what the truth is? May I give you some, some principles that you can
00:09:23.600 use as a compass? Truth before tribe. Truth before tribe means you don't lie for your side.
00:09:36.640 You don't trim the facts for your side.
00:09:39.620 You don't just leave some important details out for your side.
00:09:44.820 You don't pretend, you know, not to know what you know because the other team might benefit.
00:09:53.460 Truth before tribe.
00:09:56.360 Really important.
00:09:58.680 Number two, human dignity before ideology.
00:10:02.820 That means you don't ever turn people into abstractions.
00:10:06.640 Whether they're Jews or Arabs or immigrants or protesters or soldiers or political opponents, talk radio hosts, whoever it is, we have to start looking at people as individuals.
00:10:22.980 Human dignity over ideology.
00:10:27.000 Liberty, number three, liberty under law.
00:10:30.560 that means freedom never comes from mob permission ever it is ordered ordered freedom restrained by
00:10:44.780 principle and law equal justice means your enemy gets due process too this one is so hard and this
00:10:54.120 is one that is going to come into play in 2026, maybe 2028, because people think an injustice
00:11:06.180 is done, and they're just going after. So we're going to have trials. Okay, well, be very careful
00:11:13.100 on what you're doing today. Equal justice means your enemy gets due process too, because if it
00:11:18.980 disappears from him today, it will not be there for you tomorrow. Here's one that I think people
00:11:29.500 are having a hard time with on both sides. National loyalty without state worship. What does that
00:11:38.400 mean? I love my country, but I don't worship it. I love it. And because I love it, I recognize
00:11:48.740 it can go wrong quickly. And so I love my country enough to tell the truth about my country,
00:11:57.220 not just to drag it around in the streets, but to tell the truth in hopes that there is a way
00:12:05.320 to fix it, not just to bitch about it, but to motivate people to take the steps to fix it.
00:12:13.460 So we're not that country.
00:12:16.800 Next principle, moral clarity without dehumanization.
00:12:22.380 It means there is good and evil.
00:12:28.620 But let's be careful when we name evil that we don't dehumanize people.
00:12:37.640 You can call it out by name, but don't become infected by it.
00:12:44.820 Don't become everything you despise.
00:12:47.940 Here's one that I think so many people miss, especially in my business currently.
00:12:55.400 Free speech with accountability.
00:12:58.820 You have the right to speak.
00:13:01.240 You have the right to question.
00:13:02.440 You have the right to say things that I really am dead set against, but you don't get to escape the moral judgment for reckless speech or dishonest speech or speech that is just meant to inflame instead of illuminate.
00:13:20.800 And we need to figure out how to tell the difference between illumination and inflaming speech.
00:13:30.500 Because there's a lot of speech that happens now.
00:13:33.100 They're just trying to get you to react.
00:13:35.480 Because if you react, they become bigger.
00:13:39.300 They control the narrative.
00:13:41.440 And it's hard not to react.
00:13:43.040 It's really hard.
00:13:45.280 But stop it.
00:13:46.760 It's meant to inflame.
00:13:48.200 Don't become the gasoline or the match that they want you to be.
00:13:55.040 Power must always expect scrutiny because every institution lies to itself sooner or later.
00:14:06.860 And same with people.
00:14:08.780 You must, I expect it, I don't like it, I expect scrutiny.
00:14:13.280 and I do want to know what people who are honest are saying about where I got it wrong
00:14:20.280 because it's easy for me or you or anybody else to grow arrogant. It's really easy for me to grow
00:14:29.140 arrogant and say, I don't know what they're talking about. I want to know what people are saying
00:14:34.080 so I can get better. And the last one is means matter as much as ends.
00:14:43.280 right now we live in a world where it doesn't matter what you say or what you do today.
00:14:51.000 Ends justify the means. No, they do not. Every tyranny in history was sold as an emergency
00:14:59.420 shortcut. We have to do this right now because reality doesn't care what helps your side.
00:15:10.260 The bill always comes through. It always shows up in the end. You need to have principles.
00:15:18.900 You have to be able to train yourself to know the difference between true, almost true, and false.
00:15:26.100 ask yourself is this factual is it fair is it consistent is it lawful is it moral
00:15:37.160 would i defend this rule if my enemy was using it against me tomorrow
00:15:43.320 if the answer on any of those is no stop because you're on the almost right road
00:15:53.640 you know what's strange about back pain it usually doesn't show up with blaring sirens
00:16:00.360 and crashing cymbals it just sort of becomes a part of your daily routine and before you realize
00:16:05.360 you've totally changed you sit a little more carefully than you used to you avoid certain
00:16:09.400 movements you get up slower you plan your day around what your spine might decide to do
00:16:14.480 that that's that's not the way it's supposed to be here's the reality the chirp contour
00:16:22.500 contour is designed for that exact kind of everyday wear and tear long hours sitting sleeping
00:16:28.660 wrong working too hard sometimes not moving enough it uses targeted spinal decompression deep
00:16:35.180 massage and pressure optimal heat to help you and your back actually relax and reset you lie down
00:16:41.540 automatically adjust to your back and it does all the work for you no guessing no twisting yourself
00:16:46.000 into positions that feel like a yoga class gone wrong this is really great i use it all the time

00:16:57.240 Now, back to the podcast.
00:16:58.980 This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program, and we really want to thank you for listening.
00:17:05.680 Let me bring Jason in.
00:17:07.380 Jason, I see the script today.
00:17:10.080 I have not seen the script, so I begin to make my edits and my changes today, which I know everybody loves.
00:17:15.860 um but uh tell me a little bit about your relationship with ryan and how this has worked
00:17:22.040 before i bring ryan in yeah so ryan is what what i like to call the research circles one of the big
00:17:28.820 guns and he's very specialized and a lot of these and especially this topic he's he's probably one
00:17:35.040 of the original you know ogs one of the original gangsters of uh tracking a lot of this stuff down
00:17:40.400 And I put him in a very high league with a few of the other people that were pointing a lot of this stuff out.
00:17:47.940 Going as far as back as the Bush administration even, but heavily during the Obama administration,
00:17:53.500 where a lot of this stuff was starting to slow drip leak out.
00:17:56.920 And we were getting a picture of all this.
00:17:58.920 And then it just went away pretty wildly.
00:18:01.680 It just went away.
00:18:03.060 And I remember thinking when we were putting this together and we were looking to bring Ryan in.
00:18:06.920 I was like, it would be great if we found a lot of documents or had access to documents that would show maybe why some of this went away or what was coming to light back then.
00:18:16.280 And Ryan is the guy with the receipts.
00:18:18.360 He's like, well, I've got them all.
00:18:20.400 And I was like, oh, boy, let's do it.
00:18:22.600 This is going to be unlike anything you've probably ever seen before, but so critical for why Ryan was brought in.
00:18:28.220 It's going to be awesome.
00:18:29.040 I have to tell you, I would be remiss if we didn't thank God, because we had several specials, this is four months ago, several specials we were looking at, and all of them seemed equally as important.
00:18:42.440 And this one may have at the time even seemed less important than a couple of the others.
00:18:48.000 And, you know, we approach everything we do prayerfully, and we decided this has got to be the first special for the torch.
00:18:56.260 And look at the timing. I mean, it could not be more appropriate and more important than it is right now, because we are at war. And I'm not just talking about, you know, the war with Iran. I believe we are in World War III. People just haven't caught up to it yet. Ryan, thanks for joining us. Would you agree with that statement?
00:19:21.200 oh absolutely i think that people i think people recognize that there's a global conflict but
00:19:27.460 as for it's actually being a world war um i don't think people understand the gravity of it
00:19:33.100 or that it's happening or how expansive it is uh because all of our adversaries are talking about
00:19:39.200 defeating us the exact same way and it's through using the model uh that we're going to be
00:19:44.700 exposing on on the torch through this special um so it's the islamist and then everyone else
00:19:50.520 is taking their cues from them because they've been so darn successful.
00:19:54.580 So, Ryan, you and I, I can't remember the first time we met,
00:19:58.060 but you and I, you helped me on stuff when I was at Fox, did you not?
00:20:02.700 I mean, we've known each other for a very long time.
00:20:06.000 Yes, I think I was just communicating with you by email back then
00:20:09.040 and then more subsequently shortly after like 2014 or something like that.
00:20:13.160 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:20:14.860 Because, you know, I did not know what I was talking about
00:20:18.940 when I said the Islamists, the communists, the Marxists will all work together to destabilize
00:20:25.340 the Middle East, Israel, Europe, and then eventually the United States, I didn't realize
00:20:31.060 that was called the Red-Green Alliance at the time. When did we know about the Red-Green
00:20:37.360 Alliance, really, really know about it? Has that been a long-term thing?
00:20:42.600 We should have known about it during the Cold War. I mean, the example that you often mention
00:20:47.460 is the islamic revolution in iran being such a key example so the information was there but people
00:20:53.660 weren't putting it together and realizing how solidified of a threat it was um until like really
00:21:00.760 your show on fox really the one that made it normalized for people to start talking about it
00:21:04.960 um saying that there's this red green alliance and actually something you said that you're
00:21:09.620 criticized for that you may have even forgotten um was you you mentioned that they're also anarchists
00:21:15.580 So it's a red-green alliance, but there's also an anarchist element that's increasingly prominent.
00:21:21.620 And so when we talk about the Islamist threat, there's this interesting fusion happening
00:21:25.860 where they not only ally with anarchists and the communists,
00:21:29.620 but I would say it's no longer a horseshoe theory where they just get closer together.
00:21:35.020 I call it the oval theory now, that there's been an actual fusion into a single entity.
00:21:40.380 people said at the time when i said that they said anarchists don't work with anyone
00:21:46.920 communists and marxists and socialists won't work with a religious theocracy so you don't
00:21:54.180 know what you're talking about why do they all work together the part of it is just the enemy
00:22:02.160 of my enemy is my friend um but i think the affection has grown since then um so there's
00:22:08.900 a tactical element to it. They both, they all believe in essentially the anarchist goal of
00:22:14.560 destroying the authority in the United States. And then from the ashes, they'll be able to rebuild
00:22:20.040 what the land should be modeled on in their mind, because they know so much better than the founding
00:22:25.160 fathers. And that's the kind of commonality there. But I must say from monitoring their
00:22:30.880 internal chats for so many years, it's more than just, oh, we have a common enemy. There's
00:22:37.000 very often brotherly affection and they put their differences off to the side because they each
00:22:42.340 believe it's so inevitable that their ideology will prevail once they defeat the west that it's
00:22:47.680 like not really worth arguing about you know the islamists say well when america is defeated
00:22:52.360 you're going to see the glory of allah and you will join us you'll either become a muslim or
00:22:57.240 you'll accept accept that you know we're right so we don't need to fight about it and then the
00:23:02.000 communists, anarchists will say, well, the reason the Islamists are so radicalized is because the
00:23:07.140 Jews are doing it, the Zionists are doing it to them. And so you remove the Western and Zionist
00:23:12.380 influence. Well, they won't be radical anymore. And then we can all get together and enjoy paradise
00:23:17.500 on earth as they see it. And do they not see what happened? Explain for anybody who doesn't know
00:23:21.960 what happened in 1979 in Iran. That's an exceptionally aggressive example. So what they
00:23:30.180 would say is what happened in 1979 is that you had the basically the far left of iran which was
00:23:35.120 the communists and the marxists teaming up with the islamists and then there were a lot of people
00:23:39.520 who genuinely want to move the country in a more liberal direction and weren't part of either of
00:23:44.800 them but those were the two main camps was the marxists and the islamists um and so we call the
00:23:51.080 islamic revolution now but during then it was just a revolution against the shah and so the
00:23:57.880 She gets overthrown, and you have a joint red-green alliance come to power,
00:24:02.440 and very quickly, Ayatollah Khomeini and the theocrats
00:24:06.140 then slaughtered and destroyed the communists and then sidelined them.
00:24:11.900 But even in the inner circles on the Islamist end,
00:24:16.520 they'll say, oh, well, we don't necessarily have to be that aggressive next time around.
00:24:20.320 So they will find some way of saying, well, that example doesn't apply.
00:24:24.340 Uh-huh, uh-huh, okay.
00:24:25.800 um i i want to address something um that i'm hearing a lot that people say you know we had
00:24:33.920 four terrorist attacks uh since operation epic fury began the austin bar shooting the new york
00:24:39.580 press uh protest bombing the michigan synagogue uh and old dominion university three of those
00:24:46.100 happened last week um and people are saying this wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for donald
00:24:51.720 trump and operation epic fury well it may not have happened last week but i want to take a quick
00:24:58.260 break and then i want you to address um is this a reaction to war if we just would have left this
00:25:07.040 alone would this have not happened um and we'll continue our conversation here in just a second

00:25:33.940 wearing tactical gear walked into a texas elementary school last tuesday through an
00:25:40.340 improperly closed door and asked about the security presence on campus kyle chris
00:25:47.900 39 hey uh jason is jason in there no kyle chris isn't that an interesting name 39 years old
00:25:58.960 also known as muhi mohaned najame was arrested at his home i'm sure i said that properly too
00:26:08.400 was arrested at his home wednesday night and faces a felony charge for unlawfully carrying
00:26:14.200 a weapon in a prohibited place after the incident at Zawink Elementary School.
00:26:21.240 Chris, originally from Baghdad, Iraq, became a naturalized citizen on August 24th, 2022.
00:26:32.160 That's when he changed his name to Kyle Chris.
00:26:35.780 chris chris kyle was a an amazing sharpshooter was he not sarah uh from texas and somebody who
00:26:52.520 was over in iraq and killed a lot of people in iraq and was under threat all the time from
00:26:58.040 people in iraq he comes over and doesn't name himself chris kyle he names himself kyle chris
00:27:05.500 came from baghdad he was arrested at his home located minutes from the school
00:27:12.020 uh he allegedly told authorities he was a security guard he was actually unemployed
00:27:19.280 what happened was he got caught in the they call it a kill box it's a little security zone
00:27:28.000 you can't get in through one doors until the other doors behind you are closed and then you
00:27:33.680 have to have the security buzz you one way or another uh and he got in because a a parent
00:27:41.240 was walking out and he grabbed the door before it clicked shut he got into the kill box he was
00:27:48.420 wearing a uniform he was wearing his gun on his hip uh and he said i'm just here to check on
00:27:55.400 security well the school was smart enough you know they're in texas so they were smart enough
00:28:01.240 to go, really? Why don't you stay there? We're going to have our armed security come out and
00:28:08.540 meet you. And so while he's in the box, the armed security said, who are you exactly? What exactly
00:28:14.600 are you looking for? Knew it didn't make sense. They called police. He fled. And then the police
00:28:21.580 showed up at his house. They found him. I'm wondering how this one's going to turn out.
00:28:26.960 Watch yourself, America. You should be on different footing. Watch yourself. We are in troubled times. And there's a lot of people that would like to dismiss all of the warning signs.
00:28:39.920 You know the guy who was accused of attacking the synagogue in Michigan last week?
00:28:49.200 Yeah.
00:28:51.400 Yeah.
00:28:53.000 His brother is a Hezbollah commander.
00:28:59.900 And he was killed in an airstrike last week.
00:29:03.640 Oh, so he was sad.
00:29:05.260 Well, if he was sad, then he should have attacked that synagogue.
00:29:08.480 He has every right to do that because he's sad, right?
00:29:12.520 So wait a minute.
00:29:14.240 Hmm.
00:29:15.200 Hezbollah, his brother was a commander and he was here in the United States.
00:29:21.160 Huh?
00:29:22.020 Now I want you to know.
00:29:26.740 Well, let me just give you the story.
00:29:28.280 Let me just give you the story from NPR because it's just, it's just too good.
00:29:33.400 Lebanon.
00:29:33.920 As you arrive in this town in Lebanon's Beqa Valley, one of the first things you notice is a poster of Iran's late supreme leader, the Ayatollah Khomeini, plastered across a concrete wall.
00:29:46.780 I'm sure that's one of the first things you notice once you enter.
00:29:49.860 Is there only one road and one wall and one poster?
00:29:53.660 Usually about 25,000 people live here, and many support the Iranian-backed militant group Hezbollah.
00:30:00.620 Church bells ring out.
00:30:02.280 Uh-huh. But there's hardly anyone in the streets. Stores are shuttered. Most people have
00:30:08.400 heeded evacuation orders as Israel continues its aerial assault in southern Lebanon.
00:30:15.220 Recorded hymns echo from the church down the empty streets. Wait, what? This is the hometown
00:30:23.700 of Ayman Mohamed Ghazili, the suspect who on Thursday attacked the synagogue in West Bloomfield,
00:30:33.820 Michigan, ramming his car into the building and opening fire. The FBI says the 41-year-old
00:30:40.400 naturalized U.S. citizen died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound after he was confronted by the
00:30:45.680 synagogue's security officers. Ghazili had lived in the United States for more than a decade,
00:30:51.380 but he kept strong ties with his relatives, including his brother, who is a commander in
00:30:58.700 Hezbollah. Four members of his family were killed in Israeli airstrikes just as the
00:31:04.480 war involving Iran began. He also had a niece and a nephew and all killed in the airstrike.
00:31:12.620 As the sun set, they were gathered at home. The attacker's younger brother, they were just
00:31:19.420 breaking fast for ramadan there it is home but the house today is nothing more than a pile of rubble
00:31:26.540 the roof caved in water leaks from a severed pipe clothes are strewn on top children's toys
00:31:32.720 are covered in dust now he doesn't mention nowhere in this does it mention that the brother
00:31:44.340 again was a commander of Hezbollah.
00:31:51.400 We're just talking about the toys that are now there
00:31:55.000 and that bombed out house
00:31:56.500 and how sad he was to lose his brother.
00:31:59.200 A commander of Hezbollah.
00:32:05.320 Just take a moment.
00:32:07.400 You want to feel a little victory?
00:32:09.700 This comes from NPR.
00:32:12.200 We defunded it.
00:32:14.340 Yeah. Feels good, doesn't it? You did the right thing. There is right, and there is almost right.
00:32:22.020 Defunding NPR? Absolutely right. Then you have this story. Police standoff at the children's
00:32:29.680 hospital ended tragically Thursday morning, but a new bizarre detail about the story has emerged.
00:32:36.740 You can't out-bizarre anything in the news today. There's no way you could get more bizarre than
00:32:41.340 just the regular news today. Dallas police were conducting an investigation into a man who had an
00:32:47.640 active warrant. They followed him into the parking garage of the Children's Health Hospital late at
00:32:52.620 night. He had a gun and he pointed it towards officers. Police say the man, known as Mike
00:32:58.860 King, went in the parking garage, barricaded himself inside a vehicle, refused to come out.
00:33:04.960 He came out of the vehicle. When he did, he had a gun. He pointed it towards the officers. Officers
00:33:10.320 shot and fired swat medical services attempted to render aid but the man was pronounced dead
00:33:16.100 at the scene boohoo let's a moment to cry and shed a tear okay i think that's enough time
00:33:21.680 um apparently mike king
00:33:26.420 uh was the head of the security services for jasmine crockett and i have to tell you when i
00:33:37.460 first heard this story i thought boy the people on the left they sure know how to pick their
00:33:42.100 security people don't they i mean yeah he was wanted by police for impersonating a law enforcement
00:33:51.560 officer uh he allegedly also drove a replica undercover police vehicle what exactly is a
00:34:01.040 replica undercover police vehicle i don't i don't know what that would be
00:34:09.380 um while using license plates that were allegedly stolen from cars outside of a military recruiting
00:34:17.260 office this guy couldn't get any dirtier i mean he just couldn't be more obvious a bad guy let's see
00:34:23.700 impersonating a law enforcement officer drove a replica undercover police vehicle i don't know
00:34:29.720 what that is while using license plates that he stole from cars outside of a military recruiting
00:34:35.960 office wow this is quite the story um he had been using several different aliases while conducting
00:34:42.760 his business which was called off-duty police services the online platform connected north
00:34:50.640 texas police officers with off-duty work um representative crockett's office has declined
00:34:57.980 to comment on multiple on the multiple reports i'm i'm i'm not sure what she would say other than
00:35:03.600 wait what
00:35:05.340 let me take you to this story
00:35:10.620 transportation secretary sean duffy was asked on sunday why do you think the democrats are not
00:35:20.840 passing the funding for DHS this is Maria Bartiromo she uh said um to Sean Duffy are Democrats waiting
00:35:32.280 for Americans to get hurt or killed before they make your security a top priority um look Senator
00:35:40.740 Slotkin from Michigan uh where the synagogue attack was she voted every time against funding DHS
00:35:47.820 And once the threat to her community was real from radicals, now she says, let's open up DHS.
00:35:53.640 I think that begs the question, are Democrats going to get hurt or get people killed before they actually put your security before those who have come to this country unlawfully and illegally?
00:36:05.420 I hope that's not their position, but, you know, we could get to a better place if they would just come to their senses and negotiate after they open up.
00:36:14.380 I think they're going to pay a heavy, heavy price on this.
00:36:17.120 I mean, did you hear about the guy?
00:36:19.300 Did you hear about Kyle Chris?
00:36:21.820 I mean, is that just an obvious bad guy's name?
00:36:25.060 Because everybody in Texas knows who Chris Kyle is.
00:36:28.480 Your name is Kyle Chris?
00:36:32.240 Really?
00:36:33.000 I mean, you would meet that guy at a party, at least here in Texas, and everybody would be like, who's the dude calling himself Kyle Chris?
00:36:43.140 Okay, maybe it's just me.
00:36:44.540 um let me see uh dan crenshaw in the news telling margaret brennan that misinformation
00:36:53.000 played a role in his stunning loss no no dan i think it was you that played a stunning role in
00:37:03.960 your stunning loss uh myself um and one other story before i get to something else that there
00:37:11.880 is a great op-ed on X that I read about what the left is doing to itself. I'm sorry, what the
00:37:21.300 right is doing to itself. Let me give you this story. Former Obama campaign managers warn the
00:37:28.820 Democratic Party is a mess. The campaign managers for Barack Obama say the party is a mess ahead of
00:37:40.600 the 2028 presidential election due to the fact they don't know what they stand for okay all right
00:37:48.960 yes true and yet you're not hearing anybody in the media talk about that you're not talking about
00:37:56.860 how they don't have any clue as to what they stand for and when they do stand for something
00:38:02.380 the american people are against it
00:38:04.540 Getting ready for a game means being ready for anything, like packing a spare stick.
00:38:17.580 I like to be prepared.
00:38:19.240 That's why I remember 988, Canada's Suicide Crisis Helpline.
00:38:23.120 It's good to know, just in case.
00:38:25.300 Anyone can call or text for free confidential support from a trained responder, anytime.
00:38:30.740 988 Suicide Crisis Helpline is funded by the government in Canada.
00:38:34.540 Thank you.
